RECEIVE A BRIEFING REGARDING THE SALT LAKE VALLEY SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT FACILITY LONG TERM STRATEGIC PLAN. View Attachment Rick Graham, Michael Sears, and Romney Stewart briefed the Council. Councilmember Christensen said he felt there was not enough detail in the plan. He asked about long- term options and how the goals would take the City through the next 30 years. Mr. Romney said the plan mapped the direction the Solid Waste Management Facility needed to go based on trends. He said they prepared an annual objective and goal report and gave quarterly updates to the Solid Waste Council. He said statistics were reported quarterly and monthly and they monitored goals and objectives during the year. Mr. Stewart said they currently had about 25 more years at the landfill. He said they were exploring ideas and would update the master plan next year. He said they were looking at compaction, space, and the impact of recycling to maximize capacity. He said they were looking at long-term options for exporting additional waste. Mr. Graham 02 - 1 PROCEEDINGS OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH TUESDAY, OCTOBER 1 , 2002 said capacity could be stretched to 35 or 40 years if other alternatives were developed. Councilmember Turner said Metro Waste only recycled contractor's dumpsters from construction sites and new homes. He said this company saved a lot of material from going to the landfill. Mr. Graham said they hoped other private enterprises would get involved. Councilmember Saxton said she had noticed more use of the landfill. She said she did not want to utilize other sites in different states. She said the City needed to get more life out of the landfill. Councilmember Lambert said he agreed there was not enough detail in the report. He said he was interested in whether goals were being met and in being competitive with what it would cost private enterprise to run the landfill. He said there needed to be regular reporting or accounting on specific goals, what progress had been made and what the City could do to make more progress. Councilmember Love asked who shared the landfill with the City. Mr. Stewart said the owning entities were Salt Lake County and Salt Lake City at 50% each. He said waste came from West Valley City and South Salt Lake because of an interlocal agreement. Councilmember Saxton requested that another briefing be held when more detail was added to the strategic plan. All Council Members were in favor. #4. RECEIVE A BRIEFING REGARDING A MODIFICATION TO ALLOW USE OF CERTAIN TOKENS IN PARKING METERS. View Attachment Russell Weeks and Tim Harpst briefed the Council from the attached handout. Councilmember Buhler said the ordinance needed to be changed to read "parking meters could accept tokens." Mr. Weeks said that was correct. All Council Members were in favor of moving this item forward. Items A-5, A-6 and A-7 were briefed together. See Item A-7 for discussion. #5. RECEIVE A BRIEFING REGARDING A LOAN FROM THE HOUSING TRUST FUND TO COMMUNITY HOUSING SERVICES, INC. FOR THE ACQUISITION OF THE CAPITOL VILLA APARTMENTS. View Attachment #6. RECEIVE A BRIEFING REGARDING A LOAN FROM THE HOUSING TRUST FUND TO GREEN STREET PARTNERS, INC. , FOR CONSTRUCTION OF THE RESIDENTIAL PORTION OF THE SECOND WEST APARTMENT PROJECT. View Attachment #7. RECEIVE A BRIEFING REGARDING A LOAN FROM THE HOUSING TRUST FUND TO BRACKEN DEVELOPMENT, LLC, FOR THE PURCHASE AND REHABILITATION OF THE BIGELOW APARTMENTS. View Attachment Michael Sears and LuAnn Clark briefed the Council from the attached handouts. Mr. Sears said two projects cost $300, 000 each and one cost $390,000. He said that left approximately $1.8 million in the Housing Trust Fund. Councilmember Buhler asked how many housing units were in the projects. Ms. Clark said Capitol Villa Apartments had 108, Second West Apartment had 25, and Bigelow had 45 for a total of 178 units. Councilmember Christensen asked if the Housing Committee reviewed the cost per unit and what an effective return was. Ms. Clark said housing units were fairly consistent. She said cost was based on the amount of needed rehabilitation. She said some units were carefully maintained. She said cost of the Bigelow Apartments was higher because extensive work was needed. Councilmember Christensen asked about the Green Street application. Ms. Clark said 02 - 2 PROCEEDINGS OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH TUESDAY, OCTOBER 1, 2002 the Trust Fund Board had recommended that the City not release funding until a cost certification was prepared by the Housing Corporation. She said that way none of the money put in for tax credits would be used. Councilmember Christensen said all projects had an impact on the community and impact fees needed to be taken care of on a long term basis. He asked why there were restrictions on garages at the Bigelow Apartments. Ms. Clark said there was concern that someone could rent the garages for people to live in. She said another concern was that a person would rent a unit and then have to pay an additional amount to rent the garage space. Councilmember Saxton asked what the required income levels were for each property. Ms. Clark said the Capitol Villa Apartments were below 45%, the Bigelow Apartments were for individuals between 35% and 55% of median income, and the Second West Apartments, five of the units would be below 36% and the other ones would be below 50%. Councilmember Saxton asked that a police report be included in the housing loans briefing material. Councilmember Jergensen asked what replenished the Housing Trust Fund. Ms. Clark said repayments from an urban development action grant was approximately $33, 000 a quarter. She said they received a yearly contribution from the Redevelopment Agency Board. She said for the next five years there would be repayments of approximately $157,000 a year. She said they also received interest on trust fund money which had not been distributed. Ms. Clark said they received about $1 million annually. Councilmember Christensen asked that the Trust Fund Board consider a quarterly deadline for applications. All Council Members were in favor of moving the three items forward. #8. RECEIVE A BRIEFING REGARDING A REQUEST TO CLOSE KEYSOR PLACE (445 SOUTH FROM 250 EAST TO 300 EAST) ON THE LIBRARY BLOCK. (PETITION NO. 400-01-65) (BLOCK 37) View Attachment Janice Jardine, Marge Harvey, Doug Wheelwright, and Janice Lew briefed the Council from the attached handout. Councilmember Buhler said he understood this was a street which never existed except on paper. Councilmember Saxton asked about disadvantages if the street remained open. Mr. Wheelwright said the request was brought to staff from Property Management at the request of a title insurance company. He said closing the street removed any potential public interest in a street which had not been on the ground for 40 years. All Council Members were in favor of moving this item forward. #9. RECEIVE A BRIEFING REGARDING FUNDING FOR THE CITY' S YOUTH PROGRAMS. View Attachment Janet Wolf and Michael Sears briefed the Council from the attached handout. Councilmember Buhler said in May the Council discussed one-time money. He said at that time they made a decision to delay action on this until Council dealt with all one-time money. He said two weeks ago, the Administration called and said they were surprised the Council had not approved funding yet. Ms. Wolf showed a video of the Imagination Celebration in Salt Lake City. Mr. Sears said options for funding the City' s Youth Programs were 1) to pull $150,000 from one-time money, 2) to do that in collaboration with a legislative intent that this ongoing program be funded from ongoing funds, 3) to fund the $150,000 from the general fund and not earmark this as coming from one-time monies, and 4) to look at youth programs as a whole, realizing that the City received $1.2 million to be spent over three years. He said the Council might wish to fund this portion at $150,000 each year for three or four years so that funding ended the same time as the $1.2 02 - 3 PROCEEDINGS OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH TUESDAY, OCTOBER 1 , 2002 million. He said if the City did not receive all anticipated one-time money, it would be better to put a portion of received one-time money towards the program if they were not able to do an endowment fund. Councilmember Christensen said there was an ongoing need and if there was no money in the existing budget, then the money could come from contingency. Councilmember Buhler asked how much money was in the General Fund Contingency. Mr. Sears said there was not enough money in contingency to fund youth programs. Councilmember Buhler said the request list for one-time money was long and to find $150,000 would be difficult. He said there was a willingness with the Council to fund the program. He proposed that the Council fund an additional $150,000 for this year and asked staff to identify funding sources other than one-time Olympic money. All Council Members were in favor and wanted funding approved in Budget Amendment No. 9 which would be adopted on Tuesday, October 8, 2002. #10. HOLD A FOLLOW-UP BRIEFING FOR SIDEWALK VENDING. (PUBLIC HEARING ITEM D-1) View Attachment Russ Weeks, Doug Dansie, and Doug Wheelwright briefed the Council from the attached handout. Councilmember Buhler said the Council had taken a straw poll for vending carts to be 100-feet from corners. Councilmember Love said if the vending carts moved 100-feet from the corner on 800 South State Street, the cart would be past the Sears parking lot entrance. Mr. Dansie said the Sears parking lot entrance was exactly 106- feet from the corner. He said vendors were required to be 10-feet from a corner and the vendor on 800 South State Street was approximately 15 to 20-feet from the corner. Councilmember Love said she was comfortable with 50-feet. Councilmember Lambert said a discussion had been held about requiring vending cart owners to give Federal and State sales tax numbers when they applied for or renewed their business licenses. He asked if that enabled enforcement officials to determine if they were paying sales tax. Ms. Gust-Jenson said that only showed the City they had sales tax numbers. She said enforcement was through the State and Federal Government. Councilmember Jergensen said it was his understanding the City required a Federal tax identification number. Mr. Dansie said before anyone could obtain a business license the City required them to obtain a tax number. Mr. Weeks said he spoke to Business Licensing and people could get a business license without listing a Federal or State tax number because they had not registered as a business at the Department of Commerce. Councilmember Buhler said he was reluctant to single sidewalk vending carts out. He said it would be good policy for the Council to consider an ordinance which would require a tax number before someone was issued a City business license. Ms. Gust- Jenson said there was confusion and people did not understand they needed to register with the State. Councilmember Lambert said it had been suggested that the clean-up area be expanded from 25-feet to 50-feet. Mr. Weeks said that would apply to all sidewalk vendors. He said when he visited the vending carts, there was litter and trash more than 25-feet away from the vending carts. Councilmember Lambert said there were allegations about health violations. He said that was an enforcement issue and the Council could encourage the Administration to have a schedule for inspections. Ms. Gust-Jenson said the City/County Health Department inspected the carts at least twice a year plus Health Department staff had been instructed to stop by on a random basis. Councilmember Saxton said a provision was needed that if vending areas were not cleaned up, the City could rescind the license. Councilmember Buhler asked if the City could currently 02 - 4 PROCEEDINGS OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH TUESDAY, OCTOBER 1, 2002 take action on a business license. David Dobbins said the City had that option. The meeting adjourned at 6:58 p.m. bj 02 - 5 SALT LAKE CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT DATE: September 27,2002 SUBJECT: Petition No.400-01-65—Request by Linda Cordova, Salt Lake City Property Manager,to close Keysor Place(445 South from 250 East to 300 East)on the MHJ/Library Block(Block 37).

STAFF CONTACT: Janice A. Lew, 535-7625 RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council hold a briefing and schedule a public hearing regarding this proposal. DOCUMENT TYPE: Ordinance BUDGET IMPACT: None • DISCUSSION: This petition was initiated by Property Management as part of their efforts to consolidate all of the parcels on Block 37 for the Library Block development. As a condition for issuing title insurance, the title company requested a street closure of Keysor Place (see attached letter). Analysis: Keysor Place extends from 300 East, west to the mid-block line of Block 37. The street has not functioned as a street for many years, as the street and the residential uses were all removed during the 1960's as part of the original redevelopment of the MHJ/Library Block project. The proposal is to incorporate the street property into the library square. The City owns all of the surrounding property on the block and the requested action will facilitate the City's efforts to consolidate the individual parcels into one. When evaluating requests to close public streets, the City Council considers whether or not the continued use of the property as a street is in the City's best interest. Where the City Council has determined that it should abandon its interest in the street property, the Council will then adopt an ordinance to close and abandon the street. Disposition of the property is not part of this request, as reasons exist to retain city ownership as part of the 10 acre Library Block complex. 451 SOUTH STATE STREET, ROOM 404, SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH 941 1 1 TELEPHONE: B01-535-6230 FAX: SO1.535-6005 *� neeveeo PnPere All necessary City departments and divisions have reviewed the proposal and recommended approval of the petition to close the public street. The applicant has agreed to all conditions of the various departments/divisions. Any existing public utility infrastructure will be properly disconnected or removed from the street area as part of the Library Block development. Public Process: On May 16, 2002, the Planning Commission voted to forward a favorable recommendation to the City Council to close the public street and incorporate the property into the remainder of the Library Block parcel. Relevant Ordinance(s): 1. Salt Lake City Code, Section 2.58 regulates the disposition of city-owned property. 2. Utah Code, Title 10-10-8-8.1 establishes a process for municipalities to consider public streets, including vacating or narrowing actions. Before vacating any street or other public way, state law requires noticed public hearings before both the Planning Commission and City Council to consider the potential adverse impacts created by a closure. Once the Planning Commission has reviewed the request, their recommendation is forwarded to the City Council for consideration. Title 10-9-305, discusses the process for determining the public's interest in a street.

Disposition of the property is not part of this request, as reasons exist to retain city ownership as part of the 10 acre Library Block complex. BACKGROUND Property Owner Name And Applicant: Owner/Applicant: Salt Lake City Corporation Purpose of proposal or proposed site changes: To abandon and close the subject street. Affected Parcel Number(s): Parcel/Sidwell Number (NA see attached map). Previous Case Files: Not applicable Lot Size/ Lot Area of subject property: .17 acres (7,580 sf) Existing Land Use on subject property: Library Block Existing Zoning and Overlay Districts on subject property: Public Lands, PL Existing Master Plan Land Use Designation: Open Space Staff Report,Case 400-01-65 2 May 16,2002 By Salt Lake City Planning Division IDENTIFICATION AND ANALYSIS OF ISSUES All necessary City departments and divisions have reviewed the request and recommend approval of the petition to close the public street. Their comments are reflected in the conditions of approval. CODE CRITERIA / DISCUSSION / FINDINGS OF FACT Salt Lake City Council Policy Guidelines for Street Closures: 1. It is the policy of the City Council to close public streets and sell the underlying property. The Council does not close streets when the action would dew,' all access to other property. Discussion: The proposal would not deny access to any other nearby parcels. The street closure will facilitate the redevelopment of surrounding properties by combining them into one large parcel with other adequate access available. The proposed street closure complies with this policy. 2. The general policy when closing a street is to obtain fair market value for the land, whether the abutting property is residential or commercial. Discussion: Disposition of the property is not an issue for this petition. 3. There should be sufficient public policy reasons that justify the sale and/or closure of a public street, and it should be sufficiently demonstrated by the petitioner that the sale and/or closure of the street would accomplish the stated public policy reasons. Discussion: Closing the subject property will facilitate the City's process to consolidate the individual parcels on the MHJ/Library Block. 4. The City Council should determine whether the stated public policy reasons outweigh alternatives to the closure of the street. Discussion: Staff believes the issuance of title insurance is sufficient public policy to warrant closure of the street. This street closure process will eliminate public confusion as to the existence of a street in this location, when the street was physically removed during the original MNJ/Library Block redevelopment in the 1960's, by correcting the public records. City Staff Recommended conditions for the street closure: 1. The Public Utilities Division requires that any existing infrastructure within the street property be properly disconnected. If this has not already occurred, it will occur as part of the Library Square park development. 2. Future development of this property is subject to compliance with all relevant city standards and ordinances. This portion of the Library Square project will be used Staff Report,Case 400-01-65 3 May 16,2002 By Salt Lake City Planning Division as part of the Library Square Park,which is being planned and developed as a city project. Findings of Fact 1. The street closure is consistent with the applicable City Master Plans. 2. The City owns all adjacent property to the proposed street closure. 3. The City's open space plan for redeveloping the area would eliminate the need for the street. 4. The proposed street closure would not have a negative affect on the City's ability to deliver emergency services. RECOMMENDATION Based upon the above stated findings, Staff recommends approval of Petition #4l°- requesting the street closure of Keysor Place. If the Planning Commission decides to approve the request, it should recommend to the City Council that it schedule the required public hearing before its body and favorably consider the street closure request subject to the following conditions: l. That any existing public utility infrastructure be properly disconnected or removed from the street area. 2. Future development of the property is subject to compliance with all relevant city standards and ordinances. Janice A.
